    anyone up for camping?

    Your avatar is either you in a hammock or a guy in a body-bag that you killed on one of your trips. We think the former. :D

    Allergies?

    Now I'm stuck in second guessing myself: is it a cold or allergy? There are plenty of tables around that give you tips, but it is really inconclusive. But...and this might be key; I don't have itchy eyes, and never do when I feel like this. Just congestion and coughing. Also, when I took generic...

    Doggie Heaven? :D

    Lizard Grab

    I was in the Parker Preserve the other day, and came upon two fence lizards. The one in top of the photo had his jaw around the leg of the other one, and he was holding on for dear life. They panicked when they saw me and crawled 10 feet up a tree, and the one with the grip held on during the...

    Allergies?

    Yes, those stringy things are Oak flowers. I just bought a bottle of Nasacort and did the required 2 sprays in each nostril. This product was recently approved for over the counter use.

    Allergies?

    Thanks Al. I signed up for the emails. 46'r, I used to think I just always got a spring cold. Stupid of me to think that, instead of allergies, but I did. Anyway, I find a good heavy beer and shots of apricot brandy at least made me feel relaxed!

    Allergies?

    I am just so happy to learn that these pollen allergies I picked up in the last few years are now starting to really get me down. Awful! :( My nose is constantly clogged and dripping and I'm sneezing real bad. I took Loratidine yesterday and do have a nasal irrigator, but it only gives...

    Terns at Parker Preserve

    We used to have Least Terns at Bamber, at the lake, for many years. I have not seen them in awhile.

    NJ concealed carry case....

    In reading the link, I clicked on an adjacent one. This hunt was a complete mess. Professionals? The guy wanted to blame everyone but himself. http://www.outdoorhub.com/stories/leopard-attack-saved-hunters-life/

    Photo Archives--Forked River Mountain Coalition

    A final tribute to a great lady of the pines. She loved these woods, and so was always out in the forefront protecting them from development.

    Poachers take chunks from California redwoods, put majestic trees at risk

    Outrageous! ......From the article: "Unfortunately I feel that it's more than we can keep track of." This is a big piece of American heritage. Find the money and stop it.

    Big Trees

    Mark, that is interesting, because to the right of Al in the water photo is a pine barren outlier. We saw these huge trees all day and virtually no pine barren plants, and then bam!, we walk out to a small peninsula containing all the typical pine barren plants; cranberry, xyris, pine, leather...

    Very nice maps....

    Here is an odd thing. They must have gotten them from Bing Birdseye imagery. I downloaded those from Garmin into my basecamp, but the ones in your link have a slightly better resolution. The government must have given them a better specification in their order. Garmin is on the right: Eureka gun...

    Where is this?

    Jeff, you get this one. No need to make you pinpoint it. I'd say most people on this forum have driven by it. If you cross the railroad tracks at the southern end of Mount Misery Road, you can't miss it.

    Now we are getting somewhere! Yes it is.

    Where is this?

    No, that is incorrect. But, that is a good guess because I have seen some of those at Martha, and they are similar.

    Bevan WMA Forest Fire

    Al, on the way home tonight I was going through a mud puddle and I saw movement in the water. Biggest bull frog I have ever seen. This was about 1/4 mile west of Webb's Mill in Greenwood Forest. His face alone is as big as a green frog.
